In case anyone still needs to see a full solution, though you pretty much had it:

PS Don't be too scared by calculus, it can look intimidating, but it's really not that bad.

Yeahh, I see where the problem is now.

 

I simplified too early and reduced the left by a power of 2 and that led to some wonky number moving and the more complex answer (which was right, but still obnoxious to look at)

As you move later into calculus you will get many answers that may not lineup with the answerkey/textbook. Calculus has different answers.

To check if you are right, plug a "1" into x for your equation; and for the answer as well. 

If both of your equations equate to the same value, you have found the correct answer.
